They turn tables so quickly you will need to keep steak knife in your hand at all times to fend waitstaff off.
Service is bad.Waitress takes order and brings check... rest of staff handles everything else.
At the prices they charge you are going to get a good piece of meat. And it isn't that hard to grill it.
Great marketing but service isn;t there.

I was recommended to go to Gibson's as the best place for steak from some Chicago locals. I was told the food and atmosphere would be great.... When my girlfriend and I, got there I was told it would be an hour wait, but the bar and patio were first come first serve, so we sat outside as we still wanted to sight see later, so we probably ...

I like this place and tyr to make it about once a month. I am getting hungry right now for one of those bad boys but bring the saltine packets because the wait can be awhile sometimes.

Recently traveled to Chicago (Great Lakes) to attend my son's graduation from the United States Navy. My wife, son, daughter and son's girlfriend went to Gibson's for dinner. It was wonderful, great steak, huge lobster tail and everyone's steak was prepared perfect. No question, if you travel to Chicago, you have to visit Gibson's. Have a great day.

gibson's is a great chicago steakhouse. however the service can be iffy and the wait for a table takes forever. there are better steakhouses in chicago. try erie cafe or gene and georgetti's. both have great steaks and the service is better. the bar scene at gibson's is good, and that part of chicago is known as "the viagra triangle"- a lot of older guys and younger women-looking for rich guys.

If you don't go to Gibsons while your in Chicago your missing out on the only thing worth seeing north of Madison Ave. No other steak joint compares. Take a real Chicagoans advice and dont waste your time at any other place for steak in Chicago. You will only be cheating your self out of a taste of pure heaven! Teamsters forever!

Absolutely love Gibson's- eat there at least 1-2 times a month. Best time to go is late lunch/early dinner. Then, sit and enjoy the great food and atmosphere. Sure, it can get crowded and noisy, but, who cares? You're in a great place, with a great staff, the food is awesome, so soak it all up and enjoy yourself! Have read some negative reviews, and, gotta say, those people don't get out much!
